Symptoms

## Application Server Version ###
Version = Oracle GlassFish Server 3.1.1 (build 12), JRE version 1.7.0

Steps to reproduce the issue:

1. Configure the domain with DAS, config-nodes, cluster and instance:
   Domain Administration Server (DAS) on Server1
   Configured Node-1 on Server1
   Configured Node-2 on Server2
   Configured Cluster

   Create Instance1 on Node-1
   Create Instance2 on Node-2

2. Deploy a sample HelloWordWS.war to the cluster
   --> result ok
3. Undeploy the sample HelloWordWS.war
4. Remove http-listener and https-listener from DAS (these listeners are not needed, because the application is deployed to the cluster)
5. Restart All
6. Deploy the application to the cluster

--> Observe NullPointerException as shown below:

 
It is observed that with a target of Cluster (not 'server'), the deployment of a Web Service application ends up with a NullPointerException which points to the lack of HTTP listeners in the DAS.
